Subject: Ex Parte Communication

Date: Monday, October 30, 2023 3:57:03 PM

Today, October 30, 2023, I had a brief ex parte phone conversation with Jonathan Berkon regarding

Advisory Opinion 2023-06 (Texas Majority PAC). Mr. Berkon asked if there are any questions or

issues he could help address and I advised that I always encourage requestors to submit written

comments on the drafts. I noted that comments that let us know if they believe these drafts get

anything in the facts or law wrong or that change well established practices are particularly helpful. I

also encouraged Mr. Berkon to reach out to other Commissioners and he intends to do so.

§ 600.610 Factual findings for Federal preemption. ( a ) The two factual findings for Federal preemption of state management authority over a fishery are: ( 1 ) The fishing in a fishery that is covered by an FMP implemented under the Magnuson-Stevens Act is engaged in predominately within the EEZ and beyond such zone.
( 2 ) A state has taken any action, or omitted to take any action, the results of which will substantially and adversely affect the carrying out of such FMP.
( b ) Whether fishing is engaged in “predominately” within or beyond the EEZ will be determined after consideration of relevant factors, including but not limited to, the catch (based on numbers, value, or weight of fish caught, or other relevant factors) or fishing effort during the appropriate period, and in light of historical patterns of the distribution of catch or fishing effort for such stock or stocks of fish.
( c ) Whether relevant effects are substantial will be determined after consideration of the magnitude of such actual or potential effects. Relevant to this determination are various factors, including but not limited to, the proportion of the fishery (stock or stocks of fish and fishing for such stocks) that is subject to the effects of a particular state's action or omission, the characteristics and status (including migratory patterns and biological condition) of the stock or stocks of fish in the fishery, and the similarity or dissimilarity between the goals, objectives, or policies of the state's action or omission and the management goals or objectives specified in the FMP for the fishery or between the state and Federal conservation and management measures of the fishery.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff-Appellee,

VERNON PAUL FREDDIE,

Defendant-Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Texas

USDC No. CR-H-95-125-2

- - - - - - - - - -

October 10, 1996

Before JONES, DeMOSS and PARKER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Vernon Paul Freddie appeals the sentencing judge's two-point

increase in his offense level for obstructing justice. The

district court made specific findings at sentencing that Freddie

committed perjury at the trial of a co-defendant. Once a

sentencing court finds that a defendant has committed perjury at

trial, an upward adjustment is required under U.S.S.G. § 3C1.1. 

United States v. Storm, 36 F.2d 1289, 1295 (5th Cir. 1994), cert.
No. 95-21113

- 2 -

denied, 115 S. Ct. 1798 (1995). We have reviewed the record and

the parties' brief and we find that evidence in the record

supports the sentencing court’s finding that Freddie committed

perjury when he testified that he possessed only four ounces of

crack cocaine, rather than the 13.66-ounce amount he pleaded

guilty to possessing. 

AFFIRMED.

                Notice of September 21, 2006

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect to Persons Who Commit, Threaten To Commit, or 
                Support Terrorism

                 On September 23, 2001, by Executive Order 13224, I 
                declared a national emergency with respect to persons 
                who commit, threaten to commit, or support terrorism, 
                pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers 
                Act (50 U.S.C. 1701-1706). I took this action to deal 
                with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the 
                national security, foreign policy, and economy of the 
                United States constituted by the grave acts of 
                terrorism and threats of terrorism committed by foreign 
                terrorists, including the terrorist attacks in New 
                York, in Pennsylvania, and against the Pentagon of 
                September 11, 2001, and the continuing and immediate 
                threat of further attacks against United States 
                nationals or the United States. Because the actions of 
                these persons who commit, threaten to commit, or 
                support terrorism continue to pose an unusual and 
                extraordinary threat to the United States, the national 
                emergency declared on September 23, 2001, and the 
                measures adopted on that date to deal with that 
                emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 23, 
                2006. Therefore, in accordance with section 202(d) of 
                the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am 
                continuing for 1 year the national emergency with 
                respect to persons who commit, threaten to commit, or 
                support terrorism.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register 
                and transmitted to the Congress.
